Regents support McRaven’s actions in Hall case
Tess Cagle | Daily Texan Staff UT System Regent Wallace Hall was barred from executive session July 8, where the regents discussed the lawsuit he filed against System Chancellor William McRaven.
Following the lawsuit Re-gent Wallace Hall filed against System Chancellor William McRaven, the UT System Board of Regents met July 8 to discuss legal issues regarding access to documents.
The regents met in a closed-door executive ses-sion for nearly two hours. Hall was not allowed in the private session and was not permitted to vote because he is the plaintiff and has in-formed knowledge regard-ing the case against McRa-
ven. Hall filed a lawsuit against McRaven on June 28, claiming McRaven with-held information regarding admissions into the Uni-versity by denying him ac-cess to documents because, McRaven said, it would violate Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and put students’ privacy at risk.
Vice Chairman Steven Hicks wrote a motion sup-porting McRaven’s actions, stating the Board supports McRaven’s stance on why they do not want to grant the records to Hall.
Five regents voted in
favor of the motion, Re-gent Alex Cranberg voted against the motion and Re-gent Brenda Pejovich ab-stained from the vote.
“There are two concerns we have about providing the records,” Hicks said. “We are concerned about protecting confidential information and wanting to follow the federal law. It is our duty to protect the students records here at the University.”
In the open discussion, Hick’s motion states that Hall would have access to confiden-tial and nonpublic documents with the exception to those
FERPA protects, Health Insur-ance Portability and Account-ability Act (HIPAA) or other privacy laws determined by Vice Chancellor and General Counsel Daniel Sharphorn.
Cranberg said if the Board of Regents starts broaden-ing restrictions then they are on a “different playing field,” both legally and ethically. Cranberg said including common law would make the situation more difficult and would hinder McRaven.

Imagine Darrell K Royal-Texas Memo-rial Stadium. At capacity, it can hold roughly 100,000 people — a greater number of people than many students can imagine ever being in the same place with at once. Multiply those 100,000 fans by 60, and you have the Jewish death toll in the Holocaust. You would have to fill 110 stadiums to total the 11 million total Holocaust victims.
But this season, the stadium serves as more than just a means to visualize the number of victims in the Holocaust atroci-ties. Until January 29, the North End Zone will also feature “The Nazi Olympics: Ber-lin 1936.” I urge you to take the opportunity to visit.
To usher in the 2016 Olympics, this uni-versity has the privilege and responsibility of hosting this exhibit from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. Free and open to the public, it details Adolf Hitler’s rise to promi-nence in Nazi Germany in the 1930s, the Olympic Games hosted by the Nazis in Berlin in August 1936 and the political and moral issues that followed.
When considering the history of the 1936 Olympic Games, it may seem strange that the International Olympic Committee would al-low a totalitarian, genocidal regime to host these global games. But Germany had not yet adopted such extremism when the committee selected Germany to host in 1931. Even so, con-troversy plagued the venue selection.
The United States and other countries voiced their opposition at the time, and a boycott nearly succeeded in forcing a venue change. In the end, the games went on, despite Nazis excluding Jewish athletes and belittling African-American partici-pants, such as track and field gold medal-ist Jesse Owens. Not long after the games ended, the Holocaust unfolded. Less than
a decade after the 1936 Olympics, 6 mil-lion Jews and 5 million other people had perished at their hands. 110 full stadiums of people, gone.
The exhibit’s message has tremendous breadth. We see the extreme risk of remain-ing bystanders to injustice, the role sports play in political campaigns and the core of a prejudice that inspired such atrocities. The exhibit holds lessons of history, culture, reli-gion and race. It examines the origins of sys-tematic persecution and murder rather than just focusing on the effects.
The stadium exhibit will not teach us all we need to know about the issue. But as Holocaust survivors continue to pass — historians consider millennials the last generation to have the privilege of meet-ing Holocaust survivors and receiving their firsthand accounts — Holocaust educators must find new, creative ways to teach its lessons. This exhibit is one of those ways.
Times have changed, but in many ways they have not changed much. Examining
the roots, rather than the consequences, of these issues is the best way to creatively teach future generations. And analyzing the 1936 Olympics and the state of Nazi Ger-many at that time allows visitors to take a step back, consider the evolution of an ex-tremist regime and recognize the dark pos-sibilities when such unrest escalates.
At football games this season, remem-ber the 110 stadiums worth of people who lost their lives while much of the world remained silent. But don’t just remember them; rather, take the extra few hours to consider why the Holocaust happened.
Visit the North End Zone, connect with the exhibit, understand its similarities to today’s societal struggles and engage with this tragedy so its lessons may be brought into the present.

At a public forum July 7, students, alumni, staff and Austinites weighed in on a discussion surrounding the statues on the Main Mall, par-ticularly the statue of Jefferson Davis, and most speakers said the statue must be removed.
“The entire Six Pack is over-flowing with artistic, social and political intent that cannot at any moment pass itself off,” said Angelica Allen, African and African diaspora studies graduate student. “They sym-bolize the history of Confeder-ate history and intent of centu-ries of racial injustice.”
The statue has been the tar-get of controversy since it was erected in the 1930s. A previ-ous task force in 2003 recom-mended the removal of the statue, but no action followed.
Student Government Presi-dent Xavier Rotnofsky and Vice President Rohit Mandala-pu made the removal of the statue a part of their platform in their campaign for office.
Following three incidents of vandalism to statues on the Main Mall, President Grego-ry Fenves appointed Gregory Vincent, vice president for the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement, to chair a 12-person committee to evaluate the statues.
The forum is one of two where Vincent and committee members will seek comments
and suggestions from the Uni-versity and Austin community.
While most speakers advo-cated removing the statue, a handful of speakers disagreed.
Terry Ayers, public relations officer for the Descendents of Confederate Veterans, said confederate leaders should be honored for their service and discouraged equating Confed-erates and racists.
“I’m here to tell you my great grandfather … did not own slaves,” Ayers said. “He was just a poor dirt farmer that was called to defend his coun-try by his government just as I was during the Vietnam War.”
Public affairs professor Edwin Dorn said a society, when memorializing an in-dividual in a statue, must believe that the individual’s virtues outweigh his or her
faults, and that is not the case with Davis.
“He was a slaveowner, a trai-tor, a failure at the very thing for which he is best known — pres-ident of the Confederate state,” Dorn said. “There is nothing honorable in any of this. He should have been hanged for treason. … Jefferson Davis de-serves a place in history but not a place of honor.”
There will be another pub-lic forum July 15, and the committee is accepting online comments and phone calls until then. The committee will make its recommenda-tions to Fenves by August 1.
“We’ve had committees in the past, and there are gener-ations of students that speak up [about the statue],” Rot-nofsky said. “I’m hoping that this is the last one.”
Public forum majority supports removing Jefferson Davis statue

opportunity for excessive redaction,” Cranberg said. “Based on my actual experi-ence, there are some docu-ments that are excessively
redacted that it is difficult to make any sense of it. I appre-ciate the chancellor’s effort to move forward with infor-mation exchange. I don’t see why we should obstruct [his] efforts.”
Pejovich said she wanted
to modify the language of the motion regarding who can delegate access to informa-tion because it limited mem-bers of the Board of Regents say over a decision. Pejovich said this issue should be vot-ed on separately.

TRAINING page 9
Many don’t think of golf as a team sport. The golfer stands alone on the green, putter in hand, focused on the path to drop the ball into the hole — it all seems very solitary.
But just a few yards away, another set of eyes are also glued to the ball, waiting in anticipation for the strike
that could determine over or under par. That shot means just as much to the golfer as it does to the other part of the team: the caddie.
Caddies not only carry the clubs but take on different roles to create the best dy-namic they can with a golfer. For Carl Jackson, who has caddied for Ben Crenshaw, UT alumnus and two-time Masters champion, for the last 39 years at Augusta, his
role on the course is to be the bottomless suggestion box and mental stabilizer for Crenshaw.
“You know, he has to ex-ecute. And I have to be a professional and let my ex-periences come out of me,” Jackson said. “I could not be afraid. I could not show any doubt in what I was suggest-ing because that would cause him to show doubt.”
Jackson said his goal as
a caddie is to make sure his golfer is comfortable with his next shot.
“It begins with mutual respect for one another. The caddie feels the pres-sure too,” he said. “We look out for each other out there. Even on a rainy day, he’ll look back, and I’m walk-ing gingerly trying not to fall down, and I tell him, ‘Watch that area there,’ or ‘Be careful over there.’ I have
to stay focused on what my duties are and not make a mental mistake.”
Barbara Puett, six-time Austin City Golf cham-pion and UT golf instruc-tor, said the golfer and cad-die relationship works a lot like a coach’s and a player’s relationship would; It’s all about teamwork.
“It’s a relationship that

Four current Longhorn swimmers and UT As-sistant Coach Kris Kubik represented the United States team at the World University Games in Gwangju, South Korea, last week.
Kubik said having this coaching opportu-nity was something he never thought he’d have the chance to do.
“I don’t take the coach-ing responsibility lightly. It’s more than the respon-sibility to instill in the en-tire team that we are not just there to race,” Kubik said. “We are standing there to show the world what people from the U.S. are like and to represent our country and our fami-lies as great citizens … and to savor every moment we have to meet other people from around the world.”
While traveling inter-nationally and represent-ing the United States, rising seniors Matt Ellis, Sam Lewis, John Mur-ray and rising junior Jack Conger completed several individual events and helped their teams to medal-winning finishes.
Conger, a Big 12 record-holder, closed out his second World University Games with one bronze medal in the 100-meter backstroke, two silver medals in the 400-meter medley relay and 100-me-ter freestyle and one gold medal alongside team-mate Ellis in the 400-me-ter freestyle relay.

When it comes to weight training, student weight lift-ers definitely know what they like.
In spite of ample avail-ability of fitness centers, such as Gold’s Gym and Anytime Fitness, located near campus, often within a just a two-mile radius, UT students and alumni seem to largely agree: They prefer the convenience and supe-rior quality of on-campus gyms, such as Gregory Gym and the Rec Center, over other options.
“I work out at 24 Hour Fit-ness in the Hancock Center just north of campus,” said Sam Antonio, a UT alumnus who graduated in 2014. “I ac-tually bought an alumni pass at Gregory last fall semester. It was actually cheaper than a 24 Hour Fitness member-ship, but parking on campus became an issue sometimes.”
As a recent graduate of the
University, Antonio is also quick to sum up the qual-ity disparity between the two gyms, and notes the dif-ference in age of the demo-graphic at 24 Hour Fitness as opposed to on campus.
“24 Hour has older equip-ment, is less spacious in gen-eral, and the crowd there is definitely a little older,” Antonio said.
Antonio, who used Greg-ory Gym almost exclusively throughout his undergradu-ate and graduate years cites convenience as the main reason for the switch, but la-ments the necessity.
English senior Adalyn Burke said, “When I lived in the Hyde Park area, some-times I’d go to Anytime Fit-ness on 34th and Guadalupe, but only when I hadn’t got-ten a chance to work out be-fore or after class. It’s a nice gym, with a solid variety of free weights, but it’s hard to beat the convenience of Greg when you’re already on cam-pus anyway.”
Burke said she ap-preciates Gregory Gym’s complimentary service to enrolled students and con-siders that a major incentive to make the most of it.
“There’s more variety, and it is more convenient
than off-campus gyms, with more machines to better accommodate a really large student body, and it’s free. I always feel safe here. I’m just not really willing to let that resource go to waste,” Burke said.
English junior Hannah Blaisdell said that, while she generally frequents the Rec Center over Gregory, her experiences at other gyms have convinced her

works off of support,” Pu-ett said. “Anytime you have support in any endeavor you do, you’ll do better because you have support backing you up. It’s an important re-lationship for the success of the player.”
Much like Crenshaw found his support in Jack-son, another famous Aus-tin golfer, Tom Kite, found what he was looking for in his long-time caddie, Sandy Jones. Kite has won mul-tiple major championships since turning pro in 1972 after being in the Texas golf program under legend
Harvey Penick.Jones is unique. She is in
the minority as a woman caddie but said it’s helped her have an edge. Jones has been with Kite for the past 14 years but said she’s changed her approach over the years.
“When he got out on the champions tour, he was down low, and he needed somebody to bring him up. He wanted his new cad-die to be able to pep him up so that’s kinda how we started,” Jones said. “Over the years, of course, it’s changed, and I’m not so much a cheerleader any-more. I watch his swing and tell him what I think
he did wrong.”Both caddies, Jackson and
Jones, have grown to be a part of the golfer’s families.
“Our friendship has led to something more than a friendship. [Ben and his wife] have treated me beau-tifully,” Jackson said. “I re-member when each one of those kids was born, and when they see me they hug me like I’m their uncle or something.”
Jones still has Friday din-ners with Kite even though his wife passed away earlier this year.
“I’ll say, ‘I’m just a caddie,’ and Tom will tell me, ‘Don’t say that. You’re not just a caddie,’” Jones said.
to conduct her workouts on campus.
“There are generally just
less people [on campus], and the Rec just got new equip-ment,” Blaisdell said.
When asked point-blank where their most pleasant, productive weight training
experience has been, Anto-nio, Burke and Blaisdell were all in unanimous agreement.
“Greg would be my choice,” said Antonio. “Greg, definitely.”
